Internet Exporer browser failure

Hi
I have IE7 and it doesn't seem to find a connection to my network.
However, I also have the firefox browser and I have no problem browing the internet on that.
Once I open the IE browser, It states that the page is forbidden and that the access was denied by the control list. A message also appears telling me that the IE has encountered a problem and that it needs to close, it gives me two options of sending a report and to not send it. This then forces me to close down the IE browser.
I have not got a clue what to do now so some help would be appreciated
Thanky you.

that site link didnt really solve my issue.
However, i did figure it out easily
For future reference in the benefit of others who might have this same issue,
-Open up IE
-Click tools
-Internet options
-Click on connections tab
-LAN settings
-Tick 'automatically detect settings' then untick any other options
-click ok and it should be resolved

I wonder why that fixed it though. I don't have that checked on any of my systems and they all work okay.

Research time!

Edit: zaydurrahman, do you have a web site that you found this at?Edit#2: A quick Google scan shows people turn this off to resolve problems when using a Proxy. I didn't see one case where turning it on solved anything. This is very strange (and interesting).
